Harry Potter author JK Rowling was forced to cover the name of her superyacht while moored in Marina del Rey harbor, according to a new report.
The beloved author has endured a storm of protests since expressing 'deep concerns' about transgender activism in an essay June 2020.
She celebrated on the deck of a boat after a UK ruling that decided the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex in April 2025
She rose from homelessness to become one of the most celebrated children's writers of all-time.
It was originally commissioned for LA businessman Eric Smidt, the billionaire who founded Harbor Freight Tools.
At some point since, it's seemingly changed hands to Rowling.
Rowling has an estimated net worth of roughly $1.2 billion, according to Forbes.
The author has become a fierce supporter of women's rights causes since the summer of 2020. She caught flak after liking a tweet that referred to transgender women as 'men in dresses' in March 2018.
Rowling has denied claims that she is transphobic and says she believes people should be free to identify as they choose and be treated equally.
But she is opposed to transgender women - who are biological males - in female only spaces and says that the rights of transgender people should not be allowed to supersede women's rights.
Rowling also recently celebrated on social media on the deck of a boat – after a UK Supreme Court ruling that decided the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex.
'I love it when a plan comes together,' she posted on X, riffing off the A-Team character Hannibal's catchphrase.
As the colonel often did, Rowling was seen chomping on a cigar. That was in April of last year. She has maintained a low profile since.

Children change a person’s outlook on life. With children, you have “skin in the game”.
There’s a caliber for this 💩
If she is afraid, why is she going there?
pretty sure the A-word is Annoyed, certainly not afraid
I thought that was kinda hot. Ella tiene cojones. A woman with stones. Actually "stones" is he polite translation.
They are a violent lot

I don’t see a trolling motor or a live well...
It cannot do 60 MPH, also...
Too bad... I’ll stick with my Ranger...
Agree but put up a warning sign stating “Our guards are armed with rubber bullets today ... or not. Do you feel lucky?”
Quaint at best...
Beautiful but the marina has to be full of beautiful yachts so why/how would anyone single hers out from the rest? Does she make a habit of letting it be known to everyone?
She covered the name, so the DailyMail published a BIG PHOTO of the yacht. They are despicable.
So, what’s the name of the boat?


Unhinged pro-transgender protestors. Are there any other kind?
Rowl, Rowl, Rowling Her Boat?

Trans-hinged Pro-Transgender Trans-protestors?
There’s a new homeland for the LBGQTQRSTUVWXYZ, etc. crowd... In appreciation of all the support the ‘alternative’ community offered to the Palestinian’s during their struggle against the evil ‘Zionist’ (more commonly referred to as ‘Jews’), the Palestinian’s are offering shelter in the GAZA strip to the LBGQTQRSTUVWXYZ, etc. crowd... They’ll be waiting for you there with open arms.
The only problem is this... Each arm will have a hand attached, and each hand will be full of rocks to stone you to death with. But none the less, enjoy your stay while there. I’m sure it will be enlightening.
Thanks for posting.
Why would she name her boat after The Plutonian’s sidekick? The last thing you want to do is make him mad!
